DIWALI GREETINGS

Respected Veterans, On the behalf of office bearers of Armed Forces Veterans Association of India (AFVAI), I wish all the members and their family a very happy Diwali. I pray this Diwali may bring new lights of joy and happiness in your home. Special wishes for the happy and healthy Diwali for our serving soldiers (Real hero of the Nation) who are guarding our borders day and night and working hard for the Nation. Due to your hard work and sincerity our country is shining like a star in the whole world. We wish happy, healthy and prosperous Diwali for you and your families who will be celebrating Diwali while you are on duty. We also pray for happy life for the families of those brave soldiers who have sacrificed their lives for the security of the Nation. Vacuums created due to the loss of their lives can never be filled up, only blessings of almighty God will work. We salute to the departed souls.   I request you all, let us work together to solve our pension related problems for the good future of veterans, widows and coming generations. Thanks & Regards. GS SIDHU  Chairman AFVAI
